Brows are my latest obsession and I want to try everything brow related! Maybelline Brow Drama is a brow gel that sets and adds more fibres to the brow hairs, resulting in thicker brows.

Soap & Glory Kick Ass Concealer | Review
09:00
Soap and Glory are a brand that are loved
amongst the blogosphere – for good reason too, have you tried their shower
gels?! I’ve not tried many products from their make-up line but today I will be
reviewing their Kick Ass Concealer.
The Kick Ass Concealer has a peach toned
concealer to correct dark circles, a yellow toned concealer to correct redness
and a translucent powder to set everything in place. All housed in a sturdy
black cute compact.
The concealers are creamy and pigmented and
they do a great job of colour correcting. I like to use the concealers
underneath my foundation and usual concealer as I find the yellow shade to be
too dark for me as I’m as pale as a ghost.
They work well into the skin with various
tools including fingers, brushes and sponges. My preferred method is a sponge.
I love how it has a translucent powder on
top as it makes it a great product for travel or just convenience in general.
The powder is finely milled and sets make-up beautifully.
For £10 you are getting three products in
one. I think the value for money is great! I really want to try more Soap &
Glory make-up. What’s your favourite?
Maybelline Lash Sensational | Review
09:00
I love Maybelline's mascara’s in general and
my favourites are The Falsises and Colossal Volum’ Express. But their new
release: Lash Sensational has taken the top spot.
I’ve never had a mascara give so much of
everything, usually mascaras are best suited to volume or length, but never
really encompass both. Lash Sensational makes my lashes look fake – in a good
way! I’m lucky that I have naturally long eyelashes but I like my lashes to
look long and voluminous.
The only complaint I did have is that
Maybelline didn’t have a waterproof version available at first and my eyes are
so watery I need waterproof mascara. Maybelline have now released a waterproof
version that I can’t wait to get my hands on!
If you’re looking for a mascara to change
the way your lashes look then I definitely recommend this latest release from
Maybelline – I cannot praise it enough!
Urban Decay Original Primer Potion | Review
09:00
Today’s post is all about the well-known
and well-loved Urban Decay Eye Shadow Primer Potion. Priming my lids is a must
for me as I have super oily eyelids. Sometimes I use the Primer Potion by
itself or underneath MAC’s Pro Longwear Paint Pot in Painterly, for extra
staying power.
Urban Decay’s Primer Potion comes in four
formulas, Original, Eden, Anti-Ageing and Sin. The Original version is the one
that I will be reviewing but I will briefly describe the differences. Eden is a
matte-almost-yellow-toned primer which is great for cancelling purple on the
lids. Anti-Ageing does what it says on the tin – it helps fight ageing on the
eyelids, it is a similar consistency to the orginal version. Sin is a
purple-toned metallic potion which will help shades appear more metallic.
The Original Primer Potion is a skin-shade
that almost appears translucent when pressed onto the eyelid. It sets down to a
tacky finish and I find putting face powder over the top so I can blend my eye
shadows evenly.
Primer Potion is great at helping eye
shadow stick around all day and it prevents shadow from creasing.
I can’t fault this product in any way and I
will definitely repurchase it. I am interesting in trying the Nars Pro Prime
Smudge Proof Eye Shadow Base though, but then again, I am a make-up addict!

Zoeva Brushes - 221 & 227 | Review

Zoeva 221 Luxe Soft Crease |
Zoeva 221 Luxe Crease |
Zoeva 227 Luxe Soft Definer |
Zoeva 227 Luxe Soft Definer |
You can never have too many brushes! Especially when it comes to blending brushes because blended eye shadow brings a whole look together. I picked up these two Zoeva brushes after hearing so many good things about Zoeva as a brand and I am not disappointed.
The Zoeva 221 Luxe Crease is a tapered brush that helps you get a really defined blended crease and it's perfect for creating a cut-crease look.
The Zoeva 227 Luxe Soft Definer is a flat blending brush which is great for adding shadow to the lid and blending out shadow in the crease. This is my favourite of the two and I believe it is a dupe for the MAC 217 although I haven't tried it.
Both brushes are really soft and not scratchy at all. Zoeva brushes are really affordable too. If you're on the hunt for a few new brushes check out the Zoeva brushes. I have my eye on the Rose Gold set next!

Soap & Glory Scrub Your Nose In It AHA Facial Scrub | Review
09:00
Today I will reviewing Soap & Glory's Scrub Your Nose In It special pore refining facial scrub £9.00, now that is a long name!
I'm not a big fan of grainy scrubs because they can really damage the skin. Although this isn't a grainy scrub per-se it isn't a liquid exfoliant either. You smooth on a layer of the scrub and leave it on your skin for 2-ish or so minutes and then you rinse it off.
It contains AHA's which help chemically exfoliate your face and this is so much gentler - but effective - and it leaves the skin a lot smoother and refined.
It does have a citrus scent which always makes me think of toilet cleaner but I can definitely overlook that.
It comes in a squeeze tube which I love as it makes it so easy to get the product out. The scrub does tingle slightly when it's on but that's how you know it is working.
I'm obsessed with this and I use it 2-3 times a week. It doesn't dry out my skin which is a huge plus. If you're looking for a new exfoliant then definitely consider this one from Soap & Glory.
What do you think of Soap & Glory's skincare?
